How to re-home the Work folder to a different volume or location
18.28. How to re-home the Work folder to a different volume or location
By default, Symphony saves temporary files into the \work subfolder beneath the SymphonyOCR installation directory.
This procedure describes how to change the work folder to a different location:
- Stop Symphony OCR
- Ensure that the desired work folder exists on the target drive
- Create a text file named folderse.properties in the root SymphonyOCR installation directory
- Add the following line to the file:
work=<path to file, but use double backslashes>
for example:
work=E:\\SymphonyAlt\\work
- Optionally, move the folders that are currently in the /work subfolder to your new location
- Restart Symphony OCR
IMPORTANT: You must use double backslashes!
